[Embodiment for Carrying Out the Invention] <L

[0012] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited by these embodiments.

[0013] [[ID=--51]][1. Configuration] Referring to FIG. 1, an example of the configuration of a shipping management device 100 according to the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the shipping management device 100.

[0014] The shipping management device 100 is a commercially available desktop personal computer. Note that the shipping management device 100 is not limited to a stationary information processing system such as a desktop personal computer, and may be a portable information processing device such as a commercially available notebook personal computer, PDA (Personal Digital Assistants), smartphone, or tablet personal computer.

[0015] The shipping management device 100 includes a control unit 102, a communication interface unit 104, a storage unit 106, and an input / output interface unit 108. Each unit included in the shipping management device 100 is communicably connected via an arbitrary communication path.

[0016] The communication interface unit 104 communicably connects the shipping management device 100 to the network 300 via a communication device such as a router and a wired or wireless communication line such as a dedicated line. The communication interface unit 104 has a function of communicating data with other devices via a communication line. Here, the network 300 has a function of communicably connecting the shipping management device 100 and the server 200 to each other, and is, for example, the Internet or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0017] An input device 400 and an output device 500 are connected to the input / output interface unit 108. As the output device 500, in addition to a monitor (including a home television), a speaker or a printer can be used. As the input device 400, in addition to a keyboard, a mouse, and a microphone, a monitor that cooperates with the mouse to realize a pointing device function can be used. In the following, the output device 500 may be described as the monitor 500, and the input device 400 may be described as the keyboard 400 or the mouse 400. Also, displaying information on the monitor 500 and the user operating the input device 400, etc. may be described as "user operation via the UI".

[0018] The memory unit 106 stores various databases, tables, and files. The memory unit 106 also stores computer programs that work in cooperation with the OS (Operating System) to give instructions to the CPU (Central Processing Unit) to perform various processes. As the memory unit 106, for example, memory devices such as RAM (Random Access Memory) and ROM (Read Only Memory), fixed disk devices such as hard disks, flexible disks, and optical disks can be used.

[0019] The memory unit 106 stores, for example, a standard master 106a, manufacturing performance data 106b, inspection result data 106c, and order data 106d.

[0020] Standards Master 106a stores the required inspection standards for each product and user. As shown in Figure 3 as an example, Standards Master 106a stores product code, product name, delivery destination code, delivery destination name, end user code, end user name, inspection items, upper limit, and lower limit. Note that the inspection standards stored in Standards Master 106a are those required that are stricter than the standard standards for the product in question.

[0021] Manufacturing performance data 106b stores information about the manufacturing performance of a product. As shown in an example in Figure 4, manufacturing performance data 106b stores No., product code, product name, lot number, and quantity.

[0022] Inspection result data 106c stores the inspection results of the manufactured products. As shown in an example in Figure 4, inspection result data 106c stores No., product code, product name, lot number, inspection item, and inspection value.

[0023] Order data 106d stores product order information. As shown in Figure 5 as an example, order data 106d stores No., order date, delivery destination code, delivery destination name, end user code, end user name, product code, product name, quantity, unit price, amount, and lot number.

[0024] The control unit 102 is a CPU or similar component that comprehensively controls the shipment management device 100. The control unit 102 has internal memory for storing control programs such as the OS, programs that define various processing procedures, and required data, and executes various information processing based on these stored programs.

[0025] Functionally, the control unit 102 includes a standard acquisition unit 102a, a standard determination unit 102b, a standard reception unit 102c, and the like.

[0026] The standards acquisition unit 102a acquires inspection standards from the standards master 106a that correspond to the product for which an order has been received, the delivery destination, and the user.

[0027] The standard determination unit 102b refers to the manufacturing performance data and the inspection result data to determine whether the products of the specified lot meet the inspection standards acquired by the standard acquisition unit 102a. If the standard determination unit 102b determines that the products of the specified lot are not registered in the standard master, it also determines whether the quantity of products in the specified lot exceeds the order quantity.

[0028] The standards reception unit 102c receives inspection standards corresponding to the product, delivery destination, and user based on operator input, and registers them in the standards master 106a.

[0029] In this embodiment, the monitor 500 also functions as a warning output means. The monitor 500 outputs a warning if the standard determination unit 102b determines that the product of a specified lot does not have a standard registered in the standard master a. Furthermore, the monitor 500 outputs a warning if the standard acquisition unit 102a cannot acquire the inspection standard corresponding to the product and user for which an order has been received from the standard master 106a, that is, if the inspection standard is not registered.

[0030] [2. Processing] Here, specific examples of processes performed by the shipping management device 100 will be explained with reference to Figures 2 to 16.

[0031] Products in the chemical industry are sold as final products, but also as intermediate products used in various fields such as industrial, food, and medical applications. Depending on the final use, these products require different quality levels; for example, food and medical products require higher quality than industrial products. In the chemical industry, products are often sold to end-users through trading companies and other intermediaries, in addition to direct delivery. This often leads to complex management of end-user specifications. Furthermore, although rare, even if the end-user is the same, the required product specifications may differ depending on the delivery destination.

[0032] In the shipment management device 100 according to this embodiment, by registering the required inspection standards in the standards master for each product, delivery destination, and user, it is possible to determine whether the product meets the inspection standards when allocating products, simplifying the effort involved in shipment operations and preventing the shipment of products that do not meet the standards.

[0033] Figure 2 is a diagram illustrating the processing flow in the shipment management device 100 of this embodiment. As shown in Figure 2, first, when the sales department enters into a sales contract for a product, it obtains the required specifications for each end user from the delivery destination and registers the specifications in the specifications master 106a.

[0034] The manufacturing department registers product manufacturing performance data 106b after manufacturing the product. The quality assurance department also registers the inspection results for the manufactured product as inspection result data 106c.

[0035] When a product order is received, the sales department registers the order data 106d, and the shipping management device 100 registers the allocation for this order data 106d.

[0036] When a product order is received, the sales department registers the order details using the order entry screen MA-1 (header section), an example of which is shown in Figure 9, and the order entry screen MB-1 (details section), an example of which is shown in Figure 10, and registers order data 106d. On the order entry screen MA-1, the order date, customer code, delivery destination code, end-user code, and warehouse code are entered, while on the order entry screen MB-1, the product code, quantity, unit price, and amount are entered. The order data 106d registered through the above input is the data in the second row of order data 106d-1 in Figure 5. Since product allocation has not been performed at the order stage, the lot number is left blank.

[0037] Next, the lot information allocation screen MC-1 is used to specify the product lot and perform the product allocation process. Figure 11 shows an example of the lot information allocation screen MC-1. The lot information allocation screen MC-1 is accessed by pressing the "Lot Information" button on the order entry screen MB-1 in Figure 10. On the lot information allocation screen MC-1, the information entered on the order entry screen MB-1, such as product code, product name, and quantity, is automatically entered. On the lot information allocation screen MC-1, the lot number of the product to be allocated is entered in the lot number field, and when the "Lot Allocation" button is pressed, the specification acquisition unit 102a and the specification determination unit 102b perform the allocation process.

[0038] Figure 6 is a diagram illustrating lot allocation. In Figure 6, the allocation is explained for the order in the first column of order data 106d-1 in Figure 5. The order in the first column of order data 106d-1 is an order relating to delivery destination code "N001", delivery destination "N Corporation", end user code "E001", end user name "○○ Corporation", product code "1001", and product name "Product A".

[0039] The standards acquisition unit 102a acquires the inspection standards corresponding to the product and user for which an order has been received from the standards master 106a, namely the inspection standards corresponding to product code "1001", delivery destination code "N001", and end user code "E001". In the standards master 106a, the inspection standards corresponding to product code "1001", delivery destination code "N001", and end user code "E001" are the top three records, namely ○○ inspection "10.0~20.0", ×× inspection "100~300", and △△ inspection "1500~2000".

[0040] The standard determination unit 102b refers to the manufacturing performance data 106b and the inspection result data 106c to determine whether the product of the specified lot meets the inspection standards obtained by the standard acquisition unit 102a. In Figure 6, since product code "1001" and lot number "LOT001" are specified, the standard determination unit 102b obtains the inspection results for product code "1001" and lot number "LOT001" and determines whether or not the inspection standards are met. In the inspection result data 106c in Figure 5, the data for product code "1001" and lot number "LOT001" consists of 3 records from the top, obtaining ○○ inspection "12.0", ×× inspection "250", and △△ inspection "1900". Since all inspection results for product code "1001" and lot number "LOT001" obtained from inspection result data 106c are within the specification range obtained from specification master 106a, the specification determination unit 102b determines that lot number "LOT001" can be allocated to the order for product A, delivery destination "N Corporation", and end user "○○ Corporation". At the time of allocation, it is also confirmed that the quantity of the lot to be allocated is greater than the order quantity.

[0041] Next, we will explain the allocation for the order in the second column of order data 106d-1. Figure 7 is a diagram illustrating lot allocation. The order in the second row of order data 106d-1 is an order for delivery destination code "N001", delivery destination "N Corporation", end user code "E002", end user name "XX Corporation", product code "1001", and product name "Product A".

[0042] The standards acquisition unit 102a acquires inspection standards from the standards master 106a that correspond to the product and user for which an order has been received, namely the inspection standards corresponding to product code "1001", delivery destination code "N001", and end user code "E002". In the standards master 106a, there are 4 to 6 records of inspection standards corresponding to product code "1001", delivery destination code "N001", and end user code "E002", namely XX inspection "15.0 to 20.0", ×× inspection "200 to 300", and △△ inspection "1800 to 2000".

[0043] The standard determination unit 102b refers to the manufacturing performance data 106b and the inspection result data 106c to determine whether the product of the specified lot meets the inspection standards obtained by the standard acquisition unit 102a. When product code "1001" and lot number "LOT001" are specified, the standard determination unit 102b obtains the inspection results for product code "1001" and lot number "LOT001" and determines whether or not the inspection standards are met. In the inspection result data 106c in Figure 5, the data for product code "1001" and lot number "LOT001" consists of three records from the top, obtaining XX inspection "12.0", ×× inspection "250", and △△ inspection "1900". Of the inspection results for product code "1001" and lot number "LOT001" obtained from the inspection result data 106c, the ×× inspection and △△ inspection are within the standard range, but the XX inspection is outside the standard range. The specification determination unit 102b determines that lot number "LOT001" is product A, cannot be allocated to the order of customer "N Corporation", and end user "XX Corporation".

[0044] The lot information allocation screen MC-1 in Figure 11 is a screen for inputting lot allocation information for product A lot number "LOT001" to end user code "E002" (XX Corporation). However, if the standard determination unit 102b determines that allocation is not possible as described above, the error screen MD-1 will appear. The error screen MD-1 displays the error message, "The inventory item in question does not meet the user specifications and therefore cannot be allocated," along with the specification values ​​and inspection results for the inspection items that do not meet the specifications.

[0045] If lot number "LOT001" is unavailable, the system will process whether other inventory lots are available for allocation. The lot number will be changed on the lot information allocation screen MC-1 shown in Figure 11, and the allocation process will be carried out. Figure 8 is a diagram illustrating the allocation of lot number "LOT002".

[0046] The standard determination unit 102b refers to the manufacturing performance data 106b and the inspection result data 106c to determine whether the product of the specified lot meets the inspection standards acquired by the standard acquisition unit 102a. In the inspection result data in Figure 5, the inspection results for product code "1001" and lot number "LOT002" are 4 to 6 records, and the results obtained are ○○ inspection "18.0", ×× inspection "275", and △△ inspection "1950". Since all the inspection results for product code "1001" and lot number "LOT002" acquired from the inspection result data 106c are within the standard range acquired from the standard master 106a, the standard determination unit 102b determines that lot number "LOT002" can be allocated to the order of product A, delivery destination "N Corporation", and end user "×× Corporation".

[0047] When an allocation is made for an order, the order data 106d-1 is updated. Figure 12 shows an example of order data 106d-2. In order data 106d-2, the lot number allocated to each order is registered.

[0048] In the shipment management device 100 according to this embodiment, the required inspection standards for each product, delivery destination, and end user are registered in the standards master, and when allocating lots of ordered products, it is possible to automatically check whether they meet the inspection standards. This reduces the effort required for shipment operations and prevents the shipment of products that do not meet the standards.

[0049] However, as a result of the above measures, the granularity of the specification settings becomes finer than before, which may lead to omissions in the registration of inspection specifications. In the shipment management device 100 of this embodiment, a warning is issued when the specification master is not registered and there is a possibility of omissions in registration at the time of order registration, thereby preventing omissions in master registration.

[0050] Figure 13 shows an example of order data 106d-3. Order data 106d-3 is created by inputting data into the order input screen (header section) MA-2 and the order input screen (details section) MB-2, which are shown as examples in Figures 14 and 15. Order data 106d-3 is an order for delivery destination code "N001", delivery destination "N Corporation", end user code "E003", end user name "△△ Corporation", product code "1001", and product name "Product A".

[0051] For order data 106d-3, the lot information allocation screen MC-2 is used to specify the product lot and perform the product allocation process. Figure 16 shows an example of the lot information allocation screen MC-2. When the lot number of the product to be allocated is entered in the lot number field on the lot information allocation screen MC-2 and the "Lot Allocation" button is pressed, the specification acquisition unit 102a and the specification determination unit 102b perform the allocation process.

[0052] The standards acquisition unit 102a acquires inspection standards from the standards master 106a that correspond to the product and user for which an order has been received, namely the inspection standards corresponding to product code "1001", delivery destination code "N001", and end user code "E003".

[0053] The standard master 106a does not contain inspection standards corresponding to product code "1001", delivery destination code "N001", and end-user code "E003". Therefore, the standard acquisition unit 102a cannot acquire inspection standards corresponding to the product and user for which the order was received, and error screen MD-2 is displayed. Error screen MD-2 displays the error message, "A standard master is registered for the specified delivery destination and product under another end-user. Please check the settings in the standard master," along with the delivery destination, product code, and product name. Note that error screen MD-2 is displayed only when the standard master 106a is not registered for the relevant delivery destination, end-user, and product, and the same product and delivery destination are not registered under standard master 106a under another end-user. The user standard is generally determined based on the combination of product and delivery destination, as the intended use is similar. Therefore, if the same product and delivery destination does not have a registered standard master 106a, the possibility of a registration omission can be detected by checking whether another end user has registered the same product and delivery destination in standard master 106a.

[0054] If the error screen MD-2 is displayed, the operator should verify that the end user registered in the order data 106d-3 is correct. If there is no error, the operator should verify that there are no omissions in the standard master 106a. If there are omissions, the operator should press the "Master Registration" button on the error screen MD-2 to register the information on the standard master 106a registration screen.
